Snouck van Loosenhuis
The Snouck van Loosenhuis is a prominent town house on the Oude Haven in Enkhuizen. The 18th-century part is the former home of the Snouck van Loosen family, who became wealthy through trade during the time of the East India and West India Companies. The family lived in the house until 1885, when this branch of the family died out with Maria Snouck van Loosen. Maria left her property to a relief fund. She stipulated in her will “that this house shall be furnished for the habitation of unmarried women or widows of the decent class.”
